  • Regulatory Strategies for Managing Noise from Outdoor Music Concerts
    Proceedings of ACOUSTICS 2016 9-11 November 2016, Brisbane, Australia Regulatory Strategies for Managing Noise from Outdoor Music Concerts Alex Marchuk 1 and Frank Henry 1 1City Planning and Sustainability Division, Brisbane City Council, Brisbane, Australia ABSTRACT Government authorities are faced with a number of challenges when attempting to regulate noise from outdoor concerts. A key difficulty is the ability of an authority to meaningfully influence the behaviour of a concert operator during the concert itself. In many jurisdictions, penalties for environmental noise nuisance are an insufficient deterrent – resulting in permit conditions and noise limits being routinely exceeded or ignored. Authorities can also face a regulatory burden where noise conditions are technically difficult to measure, difficult to determine compliance, and require specialised equipment and staff to be available outside standard business hours. Noise regulations need to be carefully determined with the aim of motivating good noise self-regulation without being prohibitively punitive or impractical. Noise limits need to consider the realistic sound levels that are needed to hold a successful concert, while still preventing unreasonable behaviour. This strategy has been implemented by setting noise measurement locations at the sound mixing desk. Mixing desk staff can then monitor their own levels with immediate feedback and corrections where required. Self-monitoring provides industry with the ability to clearly demonstrate responsible behaviour to authorities and the community and it provides certainty and security for future use of the venue. 1. INTRODUCTION Outdoor music concert noise creates a unique regulatory challenge for authorities. Most noise regulation considers noise over long term periods with fixed and relatively predictable sources e.g.
